1980 Map of Flagler Reservoir

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Flagler Reservoir and its adjacent State Recreation Area define the western reaches of this High Plains landscape in Kit Carson County. The terrain is characterized by the meandering South Fork Republican River and its numerous tributaries, including Duck Creek, Buffalo Creek, and Sand Creek, which carve gentle drainage patterns across the prairie. The transportation backbone of the region is clearly established by the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroad line, which runs parallel to the primary roadway across the central portion of the sheet. At the intersection of rail and river, the map identifies Kipling Crossing, a specific point of local transit history. Small-scale industrial activity is represented by a Gravel Pit near the riverbanks, illustrating the localized resource extraction common to this part of eastern Colorado during the late twentieth century.
